Posts Tagged ‘faux hawk’

Glory Be! I’ve waited for this day for almost a year. The pleasant part was that Aus ASKED for a haircut.… be still my beating heart. He has looked like Raggedy Andy since last Spring. I felt like one of those mothers. You know, the kind that let their kids do whatever they want…. guilt had been mounting in my soul for over half a year. Only under duress did he let me trim it so it didn’t cover his beautiful Caribbean blue eyes. And all his flipping to the left was starting to make my neck sore.

Yes, this is my son…. (real men wear pink…. he tells us.) … BEFORE:

We went to the Coyotes hockey game on Thursday night and in the program there was a picture of Peter Mueller with a faux hawk. Thank you, Peter! You don’t know how your influence has pleased this mother’s heart. Not only on the ice… but also in front of the mirror.

This was the first chop. Aus asked if we were going to donate it to Locks of Love… {he’s so cute!} The sad part is, his natural bleach blond is gone until he spends some time outside. Never have I cut this much hair off of a head.

May I present, my handsome 12 year old son, Austin… AFTER: (it’s still wet… that’s how excited I was to take the picture!)

Oh, I just want to clap my hands all fast in front of my heart and do a little jig. It’s the small things that make moms jubilant. (Now, to catch son #2….)

I'm a homeschool mom who loves to speak and write, encouraging moms to press-on in motherhood. Two of my books are available NOW! Laughing in the Midst of Mothering and Laughing in the Midst of Marriage. See them at www.LindaCrosby.com or www.cbd.com.

I have four children, one of whom is adopted from Colombia, so there are LOTS of adoption tidbits here.
